Title: need some info
Post by: junniehyuk on July 26, 2004, 08:38:55 PM

I scanned my computer last night and found some virus and got rid of them.
After that a virus infected a file called   .acy? acpy? or whatever that can not delete poped up. What is that file that causes error when i try to do something with it? Should I reinstall my whole computer to get rid of it or is it safe?

And some virus from avast too that were infected.

 acpy?

Hi,

if it's a .CPY file, and it's found in the _ESTORE-folder:
disable RESTORE & reboot.
